I still say probably the best option in this situation is a KA-24, if you're going to do a swap. I don't know if I would or not. A whole lot depends on what kind of shape your current motor/trans are

Gordon's response to my post and Bob's question reminded that you can always count on any project, auto or otherwise, costing more and taking longer than you originally planned. That having penetrat

If you're talking about mine, then the answer is not quite yet. Another couple of weeks should see it done. This is the last long project I'm going to do on this system. Major hard drive problems, b

Don't know if they exist. Stock or bubble (BRE) flared F/G fenders for the 510 ran anywhere from $250 to $350 about 10 months ago when I was considering buying a second set. As for running them in S

A couple of thoughts. First, do the vintage assoc. rules that you're running under allow you to update the distributor or run an electronic ignition if it didn't come on the car from the factory? A

Matt, Although it might seem a bit strange for me to suggest it, you might consider a KA-24 as an alternative to the L-motor. You can contact Bill Kenyon (SRL311KA@aol.com) for info on that swap. He

Not true, Phil. You can remove the cam towers on L-motors. It was stressed in in the HP "How to Modify..." book, first published in '74/'75 that you shouldn't remove them, but that and a number of o

Sounds like fun, Steve. I'd suggest you find a trailer/hitch dealer in your area and consider a custom built hitch rather than adapting something, although the Harley hitch might be used in conjunct

Stephan, FWIW, I called a couple local rental places and they all wanted around $50/day for a hoist. Since I knew I was going to need it at least four times in a few months, I decided to price them.
